I try to tease James. Looks like he works from mainframe in the
nuklear bunker floor -15, where sloopy pentagon sysop forgot
close outgoing ssh port.
I think so, because James do updates only after bug report,
but never of itself - so have not a PC :)

Sorry about the delay. Multihead will come back to the fbcon layer. 
What I like to do is have a mapping field in fbcon. Currently we have 
map: and vc: option to fbcon. I like to use the con2fb_map to take all the
devices we have a map the proper vc's to the fbdev device. Its not so easy 
from the VT layer has it only has the global fg_console :-(
